I think it is not possible to restrict hols on a given item, only at
item type level by circulation rules.

So, you can disable holds for the item type (not good) or create new
item types ("Popular Books, Popular DVDs") with holds disabled and
assign items to them.

Holds enabled and disabled items could coexist in the same record.
When an item is not more popular, edit and assign it to the original type.

Bernardo
